I’ll be attending the St. Cloud event. Chances are it will be very “interesting”. I strongly encourage those who believe that “the debate” is NOT over to attend. The left will try to use mass in numbers to outweight the argument presented. Facts are stubborn things.
Get the good Congresswoman to bring up this idea:
How about we get someone in Congress to propose a TAX!
A TAX on NEWSPRINT!
Whereas the production of newspapers causes trees to be cut down, hauled by polluting trucks to polluting paper mills, and hauled from paper mills to publishers and
Whereas the production of newspapers requires toxic ink and solvents and energy wasting machinery and
Whereas the distribution of newspapers requires the use of dirty internal combustion engines and
Whereas a large portion of every landfill is used for discarded newspapers,
Therefore:
Be it resolved that a Newsprint tax, of $1,000.00 per pound, be charged to EVERY newspaper with a daily subscription, within the United States!

We should get some Republican to propose THIS as an amendment to any “cap and trade” or “carbon tax” proposal that comes up!
Maybe we can make it like “Cap and Trade” and use the revenue generated, from this tax on dirty dinosaur newspapers, to subsidize a tax credit for home computers and digital devices?
Or, we could use the money to subsidize talk radio! Well, those guys really don’t need any help!
I really like this woman. I wish the men in the GOP had half her guts.

LOL - indeed!
This woman has a bigger set than any man in the party.
Yes I like her too. I must admit I was not aware of her until I saw video of her grilling, quite effectively, some Obama appointee, was is Geitner? And he would not or could not answer whether what he was doing was Constitutional. He acted like “What’s a Constitution? we don’t need to follow no stinkin’ Constitution.” Congresswoman Bachmann was very very impressive. Later she was on Hannity or some show and spoke at length about it. She could be one of the few the proud the conservatives that may be able to take a higher office, like VP? I really like her. She has guts. She and Sarah would be quite formiddable. That ticket won’t happen, but then again who thought a Kenyan Marxist and a guy with bad hair plugs would win?
